tbh, i've never liked go daddy, and with the SOPA stuff (which they did a u turn on) I don't think i'd ever trust them.

 

And totally unrelated... I hate the logo :/

 

The women are nice though :thumbs:

 

To be fair I've never had a problem till now.

What's wrong with their logo?

Well that ones not to bad :)

 

I think over the last two years GoDaddy have just been bringing more and more attention to themselves, and not in a good way. I imagine that value for money they're not too bad and considering the next step is a more personalised service costing hundreds of £'s a month, and as Ian said, no problems until now.

 

At work we do $10,000's of hosting within Amazon and we have multiple servers in multiple locations and still get hit by outages due to "unforeseen" dependancies on core amazon architecture which they don't make public :/ Likewise similar money in Rackspace, different problems but all resulting in down time.

 

In short hosting sucks either way :) you just have to accept it and live with the little outages.

Just received a pleasant email from Go Daddy

 

 

Dear Ian,

 

We owe you a big apology for the intermittent service outages we experienced on September 10 that may have impacted your website, your email and other Go Daddy services.

 

We let you down and we know it. We take our responsibilities — and the trust you place in us — very seriously. I cannot express how sorry I am to those of you who were inconvenienced.

 

The service outage was due to a series of internal network events that corrupted router data tables. Once the issues were identified, we took corrective actions to restore services for our customers and GoDaddy.com. We have implemented a series of immediate measures to fix the problem.

 

At no time was any sensitive customer information, including credit card data, passwords or names and addresses, compromised.

 

Throughout our history, we have provided 99.999% uptime in our DNS infrastructure. This is the level of performance we expect from ourselves. Monday, we fell short of these expectations. We have learned from this event and will use it to drive improvement in our services.

 

As a result of this disruption, your account will be credited for the value of 1-month of service for each of your active/published sites.* This credit will be available to you for the next 7 days. Please click the button below to redeem your credit
